Thanks to everyone who came out live. I’m still experimenting with doing some of these Dispatches Mailbags live onstream when they’re usually for paid subscribers. Good questions today from you, the readers, spanning the gamut from the betrayals of the Neoliberals and members of the lanyard / political class, the real material motives and allegiances of the political parties and how the Democratic Party has found itself in an absolutely terrible and untenable position, the link between trauma suffered personally and through capitalism and the rise of fascism, and finally a brief conversation about guns and this dangerous environment. Appreciate the kindness and support. If you ever want one of your questions or topics to come up on one of these livestreams or mailbags, feel free to reply or send me an email. Once more, please send these things to people who might need them.
